— Lighting layouts
We calculate light distribution
before installing it.
A lighting layout evaluates, with technical rigor, how light will behave in a space before purchasing luminaires or starting construction.

— What it is
What is a lighting layout.
- /1 It is the simulation of light distribution on a surface (roadway, park, plaza, facade).
- /2 It considers the selected luminaire, its height, spacing, tilt and optic.
- /3 It validates illuminance levels, uniformity, coverage and glare.
- /4 It is the technical foundation of any serious lighting proposal.
— Process
How a lighting layout is executed.
01/ Receive
Plan or sketch with measurements, project type and site conditions.
→
02/ Analyze
We study geometry, operating conditions and applicable regulatory criteria.
→
03/ Select
We define luminaire and optic alternatives to evaluate.
→
04/ Simulate
We run the photometric calculation with LightPro and IES tools.
→
05/ Validate
We analyze levels, uniformity, glare and coverage.
→
06/ Deliver
Graphic report, calculation report and technical proposal.
→
